Master Goat Farming (Pty) Ltd Business Plan › Executive Summary

Master Goat Farming (Pty) Ltd is a commercially structured, emerging-farmer agribusiness enterprise registered in Limpopo Province, South Africa. The enterprise is purpose-built to breed, grow, and supply Boer goats to South Africa’s formal and informal livestock markets, targeting abattoirs, butcheries, breeders, and ceremonial buyers across Limpopo, Gauteng, and beyond.

This business plan has been prepared to support the raising of R5,000,000 in combined equity investment, debt finance, and grant funding. The enterprise will use these funds to develop infrastructure, purchase quality Boer breeding stock, implement a professional herd management programme, and fund the first 24 months of operations until cash-flow positive status is achieved.

Investment Highlights

• South Africa’s goat meat market is structurally undersupplied — domestic production meets less than 60% of formal demand.

• Boer goat prices have risen 7–9% per annum over the past decade, underpinned by export demand and cultural consumption.

• Limpopo Province offers ideal semi-arid conditions for Boer goat farming with low land costs and available grazing.

• The enterprise qualifies for multiple government grant instruments totalling an estimated R1.5M–R2.0M (CASP, MAFISA, AgriBEE, LEDA).

• The founder has secured a Letter of Intent from a Polokwane-based abattoir for a minimum annual offtake of 300 carcass-weight goats.

• The IRR of 38.4% significantly exceeds the hurdle rate of 15%, making this an attractive agricultural investment.
